Peer review[edit]

This article shows being under peer review.

Contested deletion[edit]

This page should not be speedy deleted as an unambiguous copyright infringement, because... I created this with out of copyright information from the old Dictionary of National Biography. If copyright information has been added since then, just revert to last good version. --Boleyn (talk) 08:21, 27 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Boleyn is entirely correct. The DNB text was written in 1889 (I had misunderstood the date of publication) and is thus well out of copyright. I have reversed the CSD tag. Jack Frost (talk) 09:37, 27 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, user:Jack Frost. You couldn't have easily seen that it was from the old DNB, as the attribution had been removed, but I've reinstated it. Boleyn (talk) 12:59, 27 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
